SUGGESTED TALKING POINTS FOR INVEST IN AMERICA AWARD CEREMONY It is an honor to me to join the distinguished list of recipients of this award. Invest in America's 'teaching the teachers' project is one of the success stories of our time. You are doing an excellent job spreading understanding of the virtues of the Free Market in our schools. 200 years ago the Founding Fathers chose the Bald Eagle as our national symbol. Its representation in this fine porcelain sculpture should act as an inspiration to us all as we enjoy the free society we have inherited from those who built our country.

    This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu United States Department News of Labor Office of Information Washington, D.C. 20210 SECRETARY ELIZABETH DOLE REMARKS PREPARED FOR DELIVERY WOMEN IN LEADERSHIP LUNCHEON DALLAS CHAMBER OF COMMERCE JANUARY 30, 1990 What a pleasure it is to return to Dallas--a city which holds some very fond memories for me. I well remember your hospitality in 1984, when Republicans gathered to re-nominate the Reagan-Bush ticket, and I was also fortunate to make a number of trips to Texas during my service as Secretary of Transportation. The beauty and size of your state reminds me of the story about the Texas politician who started a speech by talking about the beautiful piney woods of east Texas, and then he moved on through the bluebonnets and out to the plains and down through the hill country to the Gulf Coast and then he got back to the piney woods and started all over again. And when he got all around the state that time, he started in again about those beautiful piney woods and bluebonnets. Right then, a little old fellow rose up in the back of the room and yelled out, "The next time you pass Lubbock, how about letting me off?" Well, whether it's Lubbock, Houston, or Dallas, Texans can be justifiably proud of the progress and economic expansion taking place throughout your state. Over the past few years, the Dallas/Fort Worth area has been recognized as a premier location for business and corporate headquarters.

Madam President: Progress, Problems, and Prospects for 2008 By Robert P. Watson1 Abstract Women have made great progress in electoral politics both in the United States and around the world, and at all levels of public office. However, although a number of women have led their countries in the modern era and a growing number of women are winning gubernatorial, senatorial, and congressional races, the United States has yet to elect a female president, nor has anyone come close. This paper considers the prospects for electing a woman president in 2008 and the challenges facing Hillary Clinton and Condoleezza Rice–potential frontrunners from both major parties–given the historical experiences of women who pursued the nation’s highest office.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Andrew Kohut, Director Kimberly Parker, Research Director Molly Sonner, Gregory Flemming, Survey Directors Scott Nolde, Survey Analyst Beth Donovan, Editor Pew Research Center for The People & The Press 202/293-3126 http://www.people-press.org CLINTON FATIGUE UNDERMINES GORE POLL STANDING Personal image problems and fallout from Clinton administration scandals are contributing to Al Gore’s declining favorability ratings and his poor showing in early horse race polls. As the vice president has inched closer to the Democratic presidential nomination, his favorability ratings have fallen and he has slipped further behind GOP frontrunner George W. Bush in the horse race polls. While general election polls taken at this point in the cycle are more often wrong than right (see page 5), Gore’s problems may be more enduring. Fewer Americans volunteer positive descriptions of Gore than did so just two years ago, and his favorability ratings are well below the 1987 ratings of Vice President Bush, who trailed the likely Democratic nominee at that time. The patterns of response to questions about Gore may be more troublesome than the weak numbers themselves. Analysis of the latest Pew Research Center survey shows that attitudes toward Gore are more closely linked to Bill Clinton’s mixed personal ratings than to his strong job approval. The opposite pattern was observed for Bush and Reagan 12 years ago.
